Dubbo GSoC 2023 - Remove jprotoc in compiler

Dubbo supports the communication mode based on the gRPC protocol through Triple. For this reason, Dubbo has developed a compiling plug-in for proto files based on jprotoc. Due to the activeness of jprotoc, currently Dubbo compiler cannot run well on the latest protobuf version. Therefore, we need to consider implementing a new compiler with reference to gRPC.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DUBBO-111

Start with Dubbo’s current compiler and jprotoc integration, then read DUBBO-111 and the gRPC reference approach named in the issue. Define the replacement compiler’s scope and verify it works with the latest protobuf version; the issue names no files or tests, so confirm entry points and acceptance checks with maintainers first.
